Robust performance

Cut like never before: that’s the philosophy behind the WMF’s Chef’s Edition Damasteel knife series from the new and exclusive WMF Signature Line. A combination of ergonomic design and extreme precision, the Damasteel range offers exceptional comfort and durability. The knives’ robust blades are made of damask steel – known for its organic light and dark patterns and resistance to corrosion. Plus, with WMF Performance Cut technology, the blades stay sharp for longer too. Forged by hand at WMF’s blade forge in southern Germany, the blades for the new series are made using an innovative powder metallurgy process to produce steel of the highest purity without inclusions. The result is an extremely sharp knife that feels perfectly balanced in the hand thanks to its ergonomically designed shaft.
